Galaxy played one of their best games of the season, but came away with only one point as a result of a 1-1 tie at Pizza Hut Park against FC Dallas. Unbeaten streak stretches to eight. Get all the news and notes here.

How was the mood in the locker room afterward?

Defender Gregg Berhalter told MLSnet.com after the match: "We should have won the game, but give credit to them because they fought hard and they stayed organized with 10 men. They battled and they did enough to get the point. I think they should be happy but we feel like we lost two points in this game."

Now, we've all witness how naievely difficult it was for our starters/our players to settle down, compose, create, and form meaningful attacks against 10-man team for over 65 minutes yesterday. Now, if Landon goes away on USMNT - becuase the USMNT has to play and cannot do without him - please consider where our meaningful attacks, creativity, and clever passing/crossing is going to come from??? Away @ TFC is going to be so, so hard and challenging... and, at home against Houston and Real SL are not going be swimmingly-smooth, either... so - where does that leave this team, its standing & its record - more ties??? Wake up, coaches - stop retreating into the silos of the locker-room, jumping into the cars, and driving away - leaving the mess for the rest to figure out. Actions and deeds must be taken... and, it has to be taken with proof of imminent attacking capability and power!!!
